Many Founders were Deists, like the Masons with their 'Great Architect'. Many felt there was a 'Creator', a 'Force', an 'Almighty'. No one (other than you) are claiming anyone was/is an Atheist.
"Deism gained prominence among intellectuals during the Age of Enlightenment, especially in Britain, France, Germany, and the United States. Typically, these had been raised as Christians and believed in one God, but they had become disenchanted with organized religion and orthodox teachings such as the Trinity, Biblical inerrancy, and the supernatural interpretation of events, such as miracles.[6] Included in those influenced by its ideas were leaders of the American and French Revolutions.[7]"

The Jacobins were actually atheists, though. They wanted to abolish religion in France, but, it would have been impossible for them to pull that off in the 1790s, so they settled with deism. You, however, claim to be an atheist, and all I see is failed examples, like the late, not-great, USSR.
